Objective: Continue to the main gondola platform. Open the door and don't shoot the UNITY agent (though he dies shortly to a sniper's bullet). Another one of those "bored" chicks (the other was the sniper you battled earlier in the scene) attacks with an AK-47. Defeat her quickly with a burst of machinegun fire. Peer around the corner to the left and spot the final "bored" chick with another sniper rifle. Take her out, though be sure to duck back into the hall to take cover from her weapon.
Exit and explore the area for armor and items. Jump onto the crates to the left that lie near the collapsed beam. Traverse the beam around the area until you reach the area over the blockage. Drop down past the blockage and walk to the door to complete the scene.

Jump up the crates and follow the beam around and over the blockage. |
Objective: Get off the mountain alive. It appears the helicopters have left without you! Kill the guards up ahead and spot the gondola. Use the lever on the right and quickly leap inside the gondola to begin your trek down the mountain. It's quiet, but doesn't stay that way for long. H.A.R.M. has sent out six helicopters to stop you.
Objective: Fight off enemy helicopters. The H.A.R.M. choppers arrive from the rear of the gondola. Look out the windows and spot them as they fly in from a distance. Use any machinegun weapon to take them out. Use the window posts in the gondola as protection against the helicopters' deadly machinegun fire. You have six to defeat in all. The helicopters swoop in close and attack. Rip into their hull plating with your weaponry and down them in turn. After you blow apart the sixth helicopter, you witness a cutscene of Dumas eating... then exploding.

You must fight off six H.A.R.M. helicopters to survive the trip down the mountain. |
Objective: Get down safely. You're on the wobbly gondola after the cutscene concludes. Look at the nearby tower and spot the hooks for your zipcord. Peek out the side of the gondola and use the zipcord on the hooks to pull yourself to the tower. Descend the ladder to encounter Volkov! After some discussion, both you and Volkov fall into an underground cavern. Cate's weapons have been scattered, though Volkov managed to hold onto an AK-47. You begin the fight across a chasm from each other.
| 
To get off the gondola, locate the ziplock hooks on the nearby tower. |
Objective: Defeat Volkov. If you need armor fast, head left first. If not, head in the opposite direction up the incline. Jump as you move up to avoid falling off the crumbling ledge. Walk to the armor and pistol and pick them up. Hide behind the nearby rock. From this vantage point, you can strafe out from the rock and take shots on Volkov. Wait until he exposes himself to try and take a shot and return the favor with a few blasts of your own. Remember to stay behind the rock when reloading or when avoiding his shots. Defeating Volkov completes the scene and mission.
